In order to prepare for the first Texas Hold'em Poker tournament, Downing personally went to the United States, planning to use his connections in the United States to help Guam do some publicity, after all, there are still the most rich people in the United States.

After visiting a group of elder-level old guys, a tired Downing came to Jimmy's company, chatting and drinking while slumping on the sofa to rest. Although Downing was very tired, Jimmy was very excited: "Hey, Tony, I think you have a great idea, build a Las Vegas in Asia, there are good food, beautiful women, and exciting games like the DU King Contest to watch, oh my God, I want to go to your place for a vacation." ”

Tang Ning said lazily: "Then you can go, I will leave you a presidential suite." ”

Unexpectedly, Jimmy said regretfully: "Hey, it's a pity I don't have time." You say this person is also strange, when I used to not work, I was very envious of those who had something to do, but now that I am really busy, I start to miss the time when I used to go to the bar every night. ”

Tang Ning smiled and said: "You can also go now, and no one cares about you, and you have much more money in your hands now than before." ”

Jimmy glanced at him: "Just kidding, who cares when I go to the company?" You are the shopkeeper every day, and you leave all the work to me. By the way, let's get down to business, what are we going to shoot in our next film? This company has been established for several years, and a total of two films have been made, although both of them have been successful, but this number is too much to say. ”

Tang Ning said casually: "It's not easy to make a film, just make a song and dance film, and stuff all the actresses who have slept with you and want to play, or it will be over." As he spoke, he picked up a novel thrown on the couch and flipped through it.

Jimmy muttered angrily: "You said it simply, but who will shoot the kind of film that is destined to lose money." My money didn't come from the wind, and I said Tony, can't you just use your brain to come up with a good idea? ”

Before Jimmy could finish speaking, Downing interrupted him, raised the novel in his hand and asked, "Jimmy, where did you get this book?" ”

"I bought it! Huh. I'm telling you, this book is very good, it's very exciting, this author claims to have done it in the intelligence services of the United Kingdom and the United States (I don't dare to write the name, yesterday's chapters were reviewed, and I can't figure out what a sensitive word is now). ”

Downing interrupted him again and said, "Okay, now that you've found a route for future filmmaking, hurry up and contact the author of this book, Ian Fleming, and buy all the film rights to this book and related works." Let's shoot this 007 James Bond. ”

That's right, the book Downing is now in his hand is the first part of the James Bond series created by Ian Fleming, "007 vs. Royal DU Field", as the author, Navy Captain Ian Fleming did work in the intelligence department before retiring, but he was not a front-line spy, he was engaged in the planning and preparation of the rear, this "007 vs. Royal DU Field" was created by him in 1953, and it was very popular after it was released in the United Kingdom, but it was not put on the screen until 1962. And he died in 1964.

Jimmy asked with some confusion, "Shoot this?" Is this going to work? The novel is good-looking, but everyone may not like it when it is filmed. I think it's better to continue to make monster movies like Godzilla, you don't know how popular that "King Kong vs. Godzilla" is, the last "Roman Holiday" they all thought it was the credit of William Wheeler and Gregory Peck, but in this one, there is neither a big director, nor a big star and a big beauty, and it all depends on the creativity and hard work of my Jimmy Dupont. Well, of course, Tony, you're also indispensable, in short, people in Hollywood circles are respectful when they see me now. ”

Downing waved his hand: "The credit for "King Kong vs. Godzilla" is yours." I didn't do anything except creativity and funding, the biggest hero of this film is you, but in the end, this kind of film is to make a new one once in a while, and this James Bond, I dare to boast about Haikou, this can make you shoot one a year and shoot for a lifetime! ”

Jimmy asked incredulously, "Ah, is that an exaggeration?" ”

Downing explained: "I'll give you an analysis of why this kind of film is popular, because it satisfies almost all the fantasy needs of people, especially men. How can the combination of political events that you know a little but are not particularly familiar with, the exciting life of an agent, the latest technological weapons and cars, all kinds of unimaginable tools, the money that can never be spent, and the sexy and passionate beauties of all countries who can meet at any time, all these things together are not attractive to the audience? ”

Jimmy nodded: "That's right, even I want to see it, but isn't it too commercial?" No connotation at all, huh? ”

Tang Ning refuted: "The connotation of that kind of thing will be handed over to those masters who make literary films, our main purpose is to make money, besides, isn't the background of our stories all political events in recent years, and it can't be said that there is no connotation at all." ”

Immediately afterward, as if thinking of something, Downing continued: "In fact, we can work on another aspect, and that is to show a free, elegant, and tasteful way of life.

This way of life can only be attained by high-ranking officials and nobles in real life. But if the movie is about the life of a dignitary and nobleman, no one will watch it, because it is too far away from the public. In 007, the protagonist's way to achieve this state is "born a commoner, because he is the best agent in Britain, so he has unique skills, and has the right to call luxury cars, planes, villas and high-tech equipment, and unlimited card swipe." "This has greatly shortened the distance between 007 and Volkswagen. In the same way, the heroine in 007 generally does not have a prominent family background, and at the same time achieves a very noble and elegant lifestyle. That said, 007 movies are very attractive to both male and female audiences, whether you want to see the same-sex benchmark or the perfect opposite sex. From another point of view, the public wants to see the benchmark of their own life, whether it is clothing, food, travel methods, words and deeds, social circles, etc., so our goal is to make the movie a textbook of luxury life. ”

Listening to Downing's words, Jimmy was stunned and said, "Tony, you are so amazing, you can say so many things in just a few pages, no wonder you can develop so well in Japan!" (To be continued......)
